It's about to get Ugly....Chapters 5-8
As I started to read the next set of chapters I could tell things were about to get a little serious. I do have a question for the author? I'm wondering who has spread the word so quickly about King Henry VIII's intentions towards Anne? I remember in the first 4 chapters when the king and Anne were talking and he asked her to keep the matter private until he consults with his counsel. It seems like Katherine may have known even before the Henry mentioned his plans for an annulmant. I did become a bit confused on the moment her brother George came into the picture and they way he brushed her hair back with his hands as she was barely awake. Anne mentions there was a rumor of sort about brother and sister intimacy? Then she mentions George as being really close with her. Even then, she flinched when he did this. Maybe I'm stirring the pot a little more than need be. LOL Anne hit the nail on the head as she and her family arrived at King Henry's summer palace, that the king was basically buying her love. It's funny she says this because in modern day time this happens all the time. Men insecure within themselves has his eyes on a beauty and lavishes her with gift after gift. Oh I've done that before and the women lose respect for the man. However, this is King Henry VIII we are talking about. During the tudor era a way of showing love for someone is to buy their love especially if you are the King of England. And how about the king requesting Anne to serve Katherine until the matter of annulmant was taken care of. As I read on I knew Anne was not having any of this. She basically gave the king until the end of the year. LOL...can you imagine having so much hate with one another as Anne(mistress) and Katherine(current queen for now) are even in the same room let alone Anne serve her. I know women can be so vindictive sometimes. I am excited to see what happens next.
